Tuna is rich in omega-3 fatty acids that can help to protect against heart disease. These marinated chilli and lime tuna steaks are a quick, tasty and healthy meal.
Ingredients
2 tuna steaks
Pepper for seasoning
1 tbs olive oil
Marinade
juice of 1 lime
chilli flakes
1 tsp of coriander
1 clove of garlic
Method
Make the marinade in a bowl by combining the juice of 1 lime, the chilli flakes, 1 teaspoon of coriander and 1 clove of garlic.
Place the tuna steaks in the marinade and turn to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.
Heat a cast-iron griddle pan. Brush the tuna steaks with the oil and season with freshly ground black pepper. Cook for 2-3 mins on each side until the steaks are cooked to your liking. Do not overcook.
The marinated chilli and lime tuna steaks are delicious served with salad.
Keep smiling

If in a hurry this also works well. Just pan fry tuna. I use coconut oil the for the last minute or so add teaspoon of chilli jelly (or chilli dipping sauce) and stir round flipping the tuna over. This gives a nice sticky tasty tuna steak.
